Sharing Good Practice
The principles for early years education require practitioners to plan a learning environment indoors and outdoors, that encourages a positive attitude to learning through rich and stimulating experiences and by ensuring each child feels included.
For children to have rich and stimulating experiences, the learning environment should be well planned and well organised.

1.) Outdoor play - Play is the most effective way for children to use new learning. They can try out ideas, pretend to be different people and test new information in their own way. Play can help children to think flexibly and at a high level."

2.) Visual Displays of the Learning Environment - Displays of children's work can be used to help children consolidate their learning and to extend their vocabulary and language. Take a look at photographs of the learning environment in some local settings.
3.) Ideas from a local nursery - All children are encouraged to take responsibility for tidying the nursery. Each group contains a mixture of older and younger children - children learn from each other and there is always a core of experienced children who can help new entrants. Children take responsibility for different areas on a weekly basis.
